The Toyota Avanza is hands down one of the most popular multi-purpose vehicles (MPVs) available in the Philippine market today. It was a regular top ten bestseller in since it was introduced, eventually bowing out in last year to the sportier Mitsubishi Xpander.
Hoping to reassess its place in the top ten, the current Avanza was given a sort-of major exterior overhaul, now sporting a brand new fascia gives the vehicle a sportier, more streamlined face. The facelift introduces new split-type LED headlamps which complement the hood's character lines better. The front fog lamps are also a new look alongside the blacked-out lower front grille. A new set of alloy wheels, mildly tweaked rear, and the fin-type antenna complete the new Toyota Avanza's outer shell.
With two engines and two transmissions in all, the 2020 Toyota Avanza gives buyers a total of six variants to choose from. Here they are in detail, arranged from the highest to the lowest trim.
